¹ Furthermore then we beseech you, brethren, and exhort you by the Lord Iesus, that as yee haue receiued of vs, how ye ought to walke, and to please God, so yee would abound more and more.

² For yee know what commandements wee gaue you, by the Lord Iesus.

³ For this is the will of God, euen your sanctification, that yee should absteine from fornication:

⁴ That euery one of you should know how to possesse his vessell in sanctification and honour:

⁵ Not in the lust of concupiscence, euen as the Gentiles which know not God:

⁶ That no man goe beyond and defraud his brother in any matter, because that the Lord is the auenger of all such; as we also haue forewarned you, and testified:

⁷ For God hath not called vs vnto vncleannesse, but vnto holinesse.

⁸ He therefore that despiseth, despiseth not man, but God, who hath also giuen vnto vs his holy Spirit.

⁹ But as touching brotherly loue, ye need not that I write vnto you: for yee your selues are taught of God to loue one an other.

¹⁰ And in deed ye doe it towards all the brethren, which are in all Macedonia: but we beseech you, brethren, that ye increase more and more:

¹¹ And that ye studie to be quiet, and to doe your owne businesse, and to worke with your owne hands, (as wee commanded you:)

¹² That ye may walke honestly toward them that are without, and that ye may haue lacke of nothing.

¹³ But I would not haue you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleepe, that ye sorrow not, euen as others which haue no hope.

¹⁴ For if we beleeue that Iesus died, and rose againe: euen so them also which sleepe in Iesus, will God bring with him.

¹⁵ For this we say vnto you by the word of the Lord, That we which are aliue and remaine vnto the comming of the Lord, shall not preuent them which are asleepe.

¹⁶ For the Lord himselfe shall descend from heauen with a shout, with the voyce of the Archangel, and with the trumpe of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first.

¹⁷ Then we which are aliue, and remaine, shalbe caught vp together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the aire: and so shall wee euer bee with the Lord.

¹⁸ Wherefore, comfort one an other with these words.

and the dead in Christ shall rise first.....means that the other group shall remain dead for some time and this gives support to the doctrine of millennium

NATE's 1 Thessalonians Chapter 4 comment about verse 16 on 4/21/2013, 3:45am...

THE DEAD THAT WILL BE RISEN IS THE SAINTS WHO ARE HOLYGHOST FILLED AND HAVE DIED HERE ON EARTH, INCLUDING THOSE OF JESUSES TIME WHO HAVE REMAINED FAITHFUL TILL THE END...

THAT GOD HAS CALLED US UNTO HOLINESS; HE IS TELLING US HOW WE SHALL LIVE IN SANCTIFICATION, HOW WE SHALL TREAT OUR BROTHERS AND SISTERS. HOW TO KEEP OUR BODY HOLY AND LAST BUT NOT LEAST KEEP OUR MOUTH FROM LYING AND ASUMMING BY STUDY TO BE QUIET.

Joyce Hutto's 1 Thessalonians Chapter 4 comment on 4/19/2013, 11:08pm...

Paul is exhorting the Church at Thessalonica to live uprightly and to not be caught up in sins nature. He admonishes the church to live a sanctified life,one that is led by the Holy Spirit in order for us to be taken away when Christ returns for the church.There is no distinction however above those who are dead in Christ,beacause Paul states that those who are asleep in Christ will rise first.

David Eubanks's 1 Thessalonians Chapter 4 comment about verse 16 on 4/17/2013, 7:19pm...

Jesus said, today you will be with me in paradise
If we die and are in paradise, who are the dead in Christ? I am confused but not as confused as the comments above.

Jacobus Gielen's 1 Thessalonians Chapter 4 comment about verse 16 on 4/05/2013, 12:27am...

I believe the lord comes within and without, and the church has missed it because it doesn’t comprehend progressive dispensationalism. Like we have been, are being and will be resurrected not to bring in the manifest sons like a King in a balloon. I ascend and descend with the lord continuously. I hope you can handle honesty.

Pat's 1 Thessalonians Chapter 4 comment on 3/28/2013, 12:33am...

I found 1 Thessalonians 4:11, a personal blessing. My simple view, allowed me to seek "quiet". I love to talk. During the past few weeks, my behavior has changed. I learned that people don't want/or need to hear my loneliness. I Thank my Savior for His Word.
